Meet the breeder

I'm Cara A., the breeder behind Devonwood Border Terriers (NO LONGER BREEDING) located in Granger, IN. Our goal is to ensure every dog from our program is set up to live a happy and healthy life and is prepared for its future role.

Our puppies leave for their new homes with a solid foundation of socialization, and we strive for quality and excellence with everything that we do.

Q. & A. with Cara

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I didn't plan to start breeding. I love this breed and I love this line. Daphne had alot of great wins under her belt that I felt I wanted to keep that momentum going. With Daphne's third & final litter, I gave a girl puppy (Katniss) back to Dash's breeder. She had Winifred in 2018 and she came to me. With the pandemic I was not able get out and show Winifred but we have plans later this year to finish
  • What makes your program special?

    This line. I love the personalities. I'd love to chat more about this.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
